Madeline’s job is never dull. “It is great when a
customer orders an unusual colour – the most
commonly ordered colours are black and red.
Working with happy colours like yellow, jade
green, violet and pinks can be fun and have a
therapeutic effect on the designer. Perhaps my
favourite is light brown. I always have to rush
out to the shops to buy chocolate milk when
I am working with it because it is exactly the
same colour.”
Sketching ideas is the part of the creative
process which Madeline finds the most fun.
“
Constructing the garments is about pattern
cutting, fittings and at times, error. Although,”
she added, “it is very satisfying to see a ropey
drawing turn into the finished result, especially
when it is photographed on a beautiful model.”
When asked about the best aspect of designing
clothes Madeline said, “The best thing about
designing clothes is getting positive feedback
from fans and customers about how they have
loved looking at our pictures or how they loved
wearing our clothes and how great it made
them feel. In short, I enjoy making people happy.”
To hopeful latex designers Madeline
advised:“Develop your own style and get some
professional pictures taken before you put
your product out there. Get your product out
quickly and answer customer queries quickly.”
Regarding the future, Madeline would like to
expand her range. “We will be adding catsuits
and more uniforms to our collection this year.”
